Pivot already, goddammit - Raw Story


As of July 21, 2024, the Biden/Harris administration has a definitive end date. It has been broken. This could well be the best thing in the long run, but at this very moment, but 22 hours from the split, NOBODY on earth knows for sure.

And the wolves will be at her door. You can already hear them. The despicable Joe Manchin came for her last night, and there will be other attention-seekers just like him, who tell us they know better than we do.

All I know right now is this: Vice President Harris has my full support.

I will be looking for the rainbow after this angry storm we’ve been through, but right now I am going to just sit with all that has happened, and let things be.

I’ll pivot in my own way, and on my own good time, thank you.

Manchin seems to have made evil his life's work.
I'm relieved that he was slapped down with due haste.

At some point, when I was a kid, I latched on to the idea that being comfortable and satisfied was bad.

I used this as a drive to push myself to try new things and to reach higher goals, but also as an excuse to behave in self destructive ways.

Comfort isn't the enemy. Satisfaction and joy are good and healthy. Things can end, that's okay. Good, even.

If you, like me, bought this myth: consider being kind to yourself. That doesn't mean you have to stop growing, but it absolutely does mean you're allowed to enjoy what you have.
Take a walk through the clouds. Reach out and become part of the sky.

Find the nearest true wilderness and spend a few hours in the middle of it.

Today I learned mastodon (AP)
TIL that average human height went down from 5'10" (178 cm) for men and 5'6" (168 cm) for women to 5'5" (165 cm) and 5'1" (155 cm) 10,000 years ago and it took until the 20th century for average human height to match pre-Neolithic Revolution levels.

President Joe Biden is still running for re-election, Donald Trump wasn’t shot, and Kamala Harris is not a contender for the Democratic Party presidential nomination — that’s all according to ChatGPT as of yesterday, reports BGR.

We have seen multiple examples recently of why relying on AI to deliver accurate information is foolish at best, and dangerous at worst, but BGR asks whether we should really be expecting more from technology we are so often told is close to “human-level intelligence.”

second hoax for him in a month... but let's talk about Biden's mental capacity

GOP senator falls for sexually explicit Jimmy Carter death hoax


Lee posted an image of a fake letter purporting to be from the Office of Jimmy Carter, the 39th President of the United States, announcing the ex-president's death.

One look at the letter's contents, however, would have immediately indicated that it was fake.

The letter listed "getting soft on the Soviet Union" and "failing to rescue several hostages from Iran" as among Carter's "significant foreign policy achievements."

The letter also quoted Carter as making lewd sexual references to both his late wife Rosalynn and former First Lady Nancy Reagan.

"Rosalynn was a baddie. Jill, Melania, even throat goat Nancy Reagan had nothing on Rosalynn," the letter falsely quoted Carter as saying. "She was the original Brat. She gave me wise guidance and encouragement when I needed it."

Spokespeople for Lee did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

This isn't the first time, even this month, that Lee has fallen for an online hoax.

On July 5, Lee spread an unverified and ultimately false report that President Joe Biden was suffering a medical emergency on Air Force One.

There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party - namely Barack Hussein Obama - that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone 'better.' Therefore, it would be inappropriate to schedule things with Harris because Democrats very well could still change their minds."

Human attributes for alien contact

Lets say you get abducted by aliens.

They inform you that they want to make contact with human individuals, not the entire humanity. They have a limited telepathy and can "scan" for human mental traits like spiritualistic / non-spiritualistic, artistic / non-artistic, introverted / extroverted, anxious / chill, low / med / high IQ, technology oriented, business savvy, mathematically gifted, socially gifted, scientific, etc.

They want you to define traits that would make encounters go smoothly and be representative of humans.

Without knowing anything about those aliens or their interests. What is your answer?
hedgehog lemmy (AP)
It sounds like they want a representative sample, which isn’t something I’d be confident in my ability to help them with directly, so I’d advise them to first scan for a person who’s very experienced in statistical sampling and to then work with that person to determine a strategy that will meet their goals.

If they weren’t on board with that plan, then I’d see if they were willing to share their target sample size. If I didn’t have an option for the count I would assume they would be contacting 1% of the population (80 million people). I’d also let them know that being representative and selecting for traits that will make encounters go smoothly are conflicting goals, so I’m prioritizing for representation and they can figure out the “please don’t pull a shotgun out, human!” trait on their own. Depending on all that, I’d recommend an approach that accounted for as much of the following as possible.
  • gender (male, female, non-binary)
  • race
  • culture and sub-culture (so this would include everything from religion to music to hobbies)
  • profession
  • age, broken down into micro-generations
  • mix of neurotypical and neurodivergent
  • different varieties of neurodivergence
  • range of intelligences
RBWells lemmy (AP)
Nobody who is an aliens conspiracy person, they wouldn't be believed. Schizophrenia I think would let someone receive telepathy but again, unreliable.

If they can abduct me, and communicate with me, why do they want to communicate telepathically with the rest of humanity, why not contact using technology, our technology? If they were so very different there is no way they could communicate that idea to me clearly.

If you have several thousand followers and you’re upset about random people’s ability to reply to your posts instead of the horrible content of their replies, you’re just bitter that you don’t have a gig at a major old school newspaper.

Otherwise you’d be posting on your blog.

The fact that you’re on social media shows your desire to reach a larger audience than you can manage on your own. Incidentally, the mechanics of the platform providing you free reach also allows other people to reply to you, because that’s the entire point of such platforms. That’s what makes social media distinct from other types of media.

That was quick.

Big Journalism no longer covers the question of whether the presidential candidate of one of the two major parties is too old and impaired.

This is because Big Journalism defines impairment as mumbling quietly, as opposed to launching firehoses of degranged, twisted verbal sewage.

It didn't cover Trump's impairment before, and it's certainly not about to start now.
